After Action Report
In New Jersey, the Nets snuck past the Pistons 109-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. The Nets are in a full-on tailspin; Nets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo.
What tipped it
- Nets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
